  1. Perfect book for halloween

  2. Oh hey, Scott Snyder/Becky Cloonan on a second helping of Swamp Thing in one month? Just take my money already….DC really knows how to give the fans what they want when it’s a damn good thing.

  3. Not really digging the revised history and less Yannick Paquette, but I’m not ready to throw in the towel — yet.

  4. I forgot Cloonan was involved in this, I’m excited to see her version of Swampy and Arcane.

  5. Ya this story wasn’t really necessary

  6. Are Snyder and Clooney dating or something? First she does an issue of Batman, now Swampy. I think her style is too light and cartoonish for both books but she didn’t completely ruin this issue for me. She drew Arcane better than I expected. I liked the castle, the romance, and Arcane’s creepy “suit”. But like another person here said, this story felt pretty unnecessary. Can’t wait for #14 though. (P.S. The style of the framing art was more appropriate to the feel of this title.)

    • I didn’t think her style fit Batman at all, either. I thought it was the worst issue of the run. The art later in that book kicked ass though, but it couldn’t save the comic.

      I didn’t pick this up, I haven’t been thrilled with Swamp Thing and the art didn’t sell me on this. But I have plenty of other books to read.

  7. Cloonan, not Clooney. Whatevs.

  8. I liked the human touch in this issue. A nice break from all the heaviness of the Green, Red, and Rot.

  9. So does anyone know if Guillermo del Toro is really doing a Swamp Thing movie? Cuz I’ve read conflicting reports.

  10. Becky Cloonan! It was beautiful. Loved it!

  11. I love the Pulp feel of this comic. I want more Pulp/Horror comics any recommendations?
